Also masterminded the temporary seat webbing for the passenger seat. Assisted by his Dad (Brian) and Nik. Thanks guys !

upspirate (Warren) for assisting us on our Friday night startup.

Bill Edmunson for hosting the awards, lending me a boat fender (I left mine at home in the
last minute rush to pack) and promoting the maple syrup sales to finance the fuel for our return trip.
We were sold out in 5 minutes. We'll have to increase our import volumes next year !

Lauren Edmunson for capturing our first running shot on Saturday. She went to town to
process and frame our Launch portrait, missing several hours of boating action.

Mark and Lori Chadwick (the new Canucks) for providing the extra cookstoves and manning our bacon
assembly line. It was a pleasure to work with a fellow snowmobiler. We appreciated the help !

Ski King (Dwain Colton). We unanimously agreed to grant honorary Canadian citizenship to Dwain when we he showed up with more breakfast vittles to feed the 'late' crowd. Also provided thrills for anybody brave enough to go with him and was also our photographer's official chase boat. We couldn't have gotten many or our shots without you - THANKS!!! We also had a great run on the lake Sunday afternoon.

CyberNick (Nik Vassilev) for snapping a ton of photos and preparing and presenting a great slide show on Saturday night. He also did all the driving (~ 2400 mi).

I resourced my Trip Report post and uploaded it to our website's Gathering Page. Just had to get in one more run before the temps start dropping, so we ran on the Ottawa River last Sunday. The video should provide the gear heads out there (you know who you are ) with enough v-drive whine to get you through the Winter months.

Maybe it is just me, but I don't see the Ottawa River video. I see the frame for it, but it does not load.

is it out on YouTube somewhere?

1) I was particularly impressed by the paddle and dock bumper you were carrying.
2) What are the performance stats? How many RPM did you turn? What speed did you manage?
